description
A long day hike with some scrambling and rock climbing to gain the summit of Mt Kinesava.
The climbing is discontinuous, short ~10m pitches interspersed with ~100m of walking/climbing. Very much an alpine route.
The most memorable pitch is near the top, a ~15m 5.7 hand-crack.

Red Rocks: 19 routes Thanks to the very sculpted sandstone of Red rocks, it is possible to climb routes on very steep cliffs at quite moderate grade. The protections are good and quite easy to place. Trad 6a grade is required
Zion: 8 routes In Zion, the routes are often more demanding both in terms of difficulty and climbing style. Trad 6b grade is required and a good crack climbing experience
